Billings Senior rallied from a seven-point halftime deficit against No. 4-ranked Billings West to force overtime on a 3-pointer by sophomore Chase Bad Bear before topping the Golden Bears in the extra period for a 78-70 win.

Senior didn't grab its first lead until there were less than two minutes to play in the fourth quarter. The Broncs led by one when Brayden Zimmer got a put-back to go with under 30 seconds left to put West up one. West then got free throws to push the lead to three with under 10 seconds to play.

That's when Bad Bear got free in the corner and canned a triple as time expired to force the extra period.

Senior opened overtime on a 9-2 run and made free throws down the stretch to hold off West.

The Broncs improve to 6-7 on the year while West falls to 8-5.
